Panerai Luminor Composite 1950 3 Days – 47mm
One of the hits at SIHH 2010 was Panerai’s Radiomir Composite Marina Militare. For 2011 Panerai presents a new Special Edition in that sought-after material: the Luminor Composite 1950 3 Days – 47mm. The new piece combines the lightness, strength and durability of Panerai Composite with the new hand-wound P.3000 caliber, which is designed and produced in the Officine Panerai manufacture in Neuchatel. Look inside for pricing, availability dates, and wallpaper.Like last year’s Radiomir, the Luminor 1950 case in Panerai Composite measures 47 mm in diameter, a classic size for Panerai watches, and it has a durable, unique matte brown appearance. Made of the same material are the bridge protecting the winding crown with the classic clamping lever and the round bezel which surrounds the sapphire crystal with anti-reflective treatment. Water-resistant to 100 meters, the case has the polished crystal back which enables the movement to be seen.The spare dial too is dark brown

Introducing: The Royal Oak Concept Supersonnerie, A Groundbreaking Minute Repeater From Audemars Pig
Audemars Piguet is famous – rightly famous – for many things; among them the Royal Oak's instantly recognizable eight-sided bezel and distinctive overall case architecture. What's less well known in the general watch enthusiast community, however, is that there is quite a lot more to the history of Audemars Piguet than the Royal Oak itself. In fact, for much of its history, one of the most distinctive elements of Audemars Piguet's identity was its expertise as a complications maker. It's a revelatory experience, if you can get there, to visit the Audemars Piguet museum, as HODINKEE did not long ago, and actually see and hear some of its historical production of minute repeaters. With the Royal Oak Concept Supersonnerie, Audemars Piguet's put together a genuinely fascinating fusion of some of its newest visions of watch design, and some of its most historically – well, resonant – areas of technical mastery. 1 OF 7 The Audemars Pigu

Royal Oak Diver with Stainless band
Has anyone seen a diver with this band? It is being sold by a reputable dealer in Scottsdale, but I've only seen the rubber band.

Need help choosing the next one....
Hi Gang,The journey's been real. I guess my AP love affair really didn't start until my second time around. What I mean is, it's always memorable to reconvene with something so great the second time you got to come around owning it. I got my first AP when I was way too young and before I realized it was something so great it had already been flipped. That was a black themed SS offshore on calf (before hornbacks were the standard straps). I completely deviated from any AP pieces for a long while until I bought my second one back (ROC Panda) less than a month ago. For a while I thought I was done with the offshore line (to sort of justify having sold my 1st one), but no, I bought a diver right after the panda. And of course, all your gorgeous pics of your offshores, be it LE or not, have made me come around and now wanting one again. I've narrowed down to just four and wanted to know which one you guys think I should go for.1. Volcano2. Bumble Bee3. Gentleman's Driver4. 57th Street NYChe

AC February Adjustment
I recently added my first PP, a 5726. This is also my first AC watch. First question: For AC PPs like the 5726, when do you adjust your date for February? On March 1st or on the 28th / 29th of February? The manual says not to advance the date when it's either the 30th or the 31st because the month change mechanism is in motion. To me it would make since to adjust on the last day of February and before the date change mech is in motion.Second question: Does the movement think February has 30 or 31 days? That is, would you set the date to the 30th or 31st on the last day of February? Reading through the manual I did not see where it specified this. I realize I have a while before I need to worry about this, but I was just wondering.
